"Oh, motorcycles are too dangerous, you shouldn't be riding one!"
The reply in my head starts with F and ends with U.

- August 02, 2018, 01:20:44 AMMost of my Harley friends rib me good naturedly about my Drifter, then admit that they like it better than they like their own bikes sometimes. I just bought a Yamaha Royal Star Tour Deluxe at a great price, something to carry mama around in comfort and I decided I would do Sturgis this year(Haven't been in 20 years)At the Shop today the comment was made about having the "old Man"(me) riding in back on the way out so as not to get in the way of all those screaming Harley's. One of the fellas, who rides a '48 Panhead out there every year comes back with, "No, Bob is back there with the most reliable bike to pick up all the parts that fall off those screamin' Harley's LOL.

(oh man, that so hurts, the way stupidity is celebrated here in the US in so many places and circles).When I get "Aren't motorcycles dangerous"?
I reply that "I came into this world bloody, kicking, and screaming. I probably will go out the same way."

- July 30, 2016, 10:36:09 AMYes GB, I've also noticed that some of the "elite H-D" (sarcasm) group doesn't wave.

- July 30, 2016, 09:27:31 AMYes, I've seen even LESS and LESS HD people wave on the road - I think Polaris has had a negative effect on the perception of OUR drifters, how ironic..... The HD'ers have their nose out of joint b/c of the new Indian presence in their previously only-HD group of 'American made' bikes, not to mention MANY HD people I know are saying the Indian is better and more affordable than the HD's --- So a lot of the HD crowd resents the Polaris Indian, and anything that looks like it---- Even though the last Drifters were made a long time before Polaris did their Indian.
